When the news first came out, Lin Zhiying's agent had denied that it was Lin Zhiying who had the car accident.
Because the rescued injured person has obvious wounds on the face, shoulders, hands, etc., it is difficult to judge his identity for a while in the case of severe swelling of the face.
But netizens still recognized Lin Zhiying through the famous watch worn by the injured, which is limited to 500 pieces worldwide and worth about NT$3 million.
It was not until the afternoon that the agent confirmed that the two injured people in the car were Lin Zhiying's father and son.

Sitting in the passenger seat, he was wearing a racing suit, not only did not panic and cry, but also told the workers that they were going to Taoyuan to participate in the karting race today, "There is no way to go to the race..."

However, the situation at the scene was still very thrilling.
The first passerby to arrive did not know how to open the Tesla car door at first, or Jenson himself opened the door, and the passerby was able to carry him out.
Then when Lin Zhiying was rescued, the engine at the front of the car had begun to emit fragmentary explosions, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the temperature inside the car rose sharply.
In the case of no way, people can only use brute force to drag Lin Zhiying out of the car, and the workers involved in the rescue revealed that after pulling out Lin Zhiying, his hands were full of his blood, "pulling it out hard, so the place where his foot was stuck was a little injured." Less than 5 seconds after pulling out, the fire spread to the cab. ”
After the rescue, enthusiastic people left the scene one after another, not knowing that it was Lin Zhiying who risked their lives to save.
From the photos at the scene, it can be seen that after the fire was extinguished, the front half of Lin Zhiying's car has been burned to the point where only the frame remains.
Fortunately, when the accident occurred, the enthusiastic people nearby reached out in time to help, and another ambulance just passed by, and the father and son were able to get out of trouble in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.
Footage of the accident scene
In the evening, Lin Zhiying's younger brother Lin Zhixin appeared at Linkou Chang Gung Hospital and revealed Lin Zhiying's injuries.
Lin Zhiying has many injuries and fractures, but the current condition and spirit are relatively stable, need to undergo surgical evaluation, the condition can not be detailed for the time being, the next two or three days is the focus.
Previously, a doctor revealed that because of the violent impact, although there is no danger to life for the time being, the face fracture, the humerus crushing fracture of the shoulder, and the slight brain injury need to be stabilized before undergoing surgery.
At present, Lin Zhiying's mother, wife Chen Ruoyi, sister and two younger brothers are accompanied by the hospital, and the family is very grateful to the passers-by who rescued Lin Zhiying, expressing their desire to find the person and thank him.
Lin Zhiying's younger brother
In January this year, Lin Zhiying posted photos of test driving Teslas, and also revealed that he bought Tesla stock and doubled his earnings.
When celebrating her 47th birthday last year, Lin Zhiying posted a luxury car party with 18 sports cars and a total price of more than 1 billion.
And this year is Lin Zhiying's life year...
Last year, Lin Zhiying celebrated her 47th birthday
Lin Zhiying once revealed that his electric vehicle driving age has been up to 7 years, and the reason for buying it is for the automatic driving function.
The model X in the accident is still a new model in 2021, Lin Zhiying once revealed that the purchase process also experienced three price increases, from 3.63 million to 3.88 million.
Because children like it, this car is used by Lin Zhiying as a "nanny car", and it is this car that usually picks up and drops off children.
Moreover, as early as 1998, Lin Zhiying had a car accident because of racing.
At that time, he was bent on competing for the championship, blindly stepping on the accelerator, resulting in a crash and overturning.
When he got out of the car, he found that his foot was injured, and he quickly jumped away on one foot, and the car immediately caught fire.
In that accident, Lin Zhiying broke 3 bones and hit 4 steel nails.
Lin Zhiying driving a racing car
Itself is an experienced racing driver, and has driven an electric car for many years, this time driving is still a common car that usually goes out, why it will hit the divider belt at the end of the open road, netizens are puzzled.
Some riders believe that perhaps they entered the cruise mode and failed to successfully switch to the assisted driving (AutoPilot), so the lane shift occurred.
The preliminary conclusion given by the police in the briefing is that Lin Zhiying drove forward at a speed that was not very fast after turning around the lane, but it was suspected that he did not pay attention to the situation in front of the car, accidentally collided with the isolation belt, causing the vehicle to catch fire and burn, and the details remain to be investigated. The real-time alcohol test value is 0, and there is no drunk driving.
Tesla customer service responded: "The cause of the fire cannot be confirmed for the time being. ”
The occurrence of this accident is not a case of racing on the racing track, nor is there a problem of drunk driving, why such a serious accident occurred in good road conditions, can only wait for further investigation and explanation by the authorities.
In the critical period of the next two or three days, I hope that Lin Zhiying can get through it safely and turn the danger into a disaster.
Those passers-by and workers who have seen the courage of the righteous are also worthy of everyone's praise and praise, and it is precisely because they do not hesitate to fire and rescue that they have avoided more serious consequences.
Netizens are also busy reminding each other that if they encounter this situation, they must escape at the first time.
Because electric vehicle fires are generally difficult to extinguish, the fire extinguishing process is not less than 40 minutes, which is a problem for global firefighting; And it is easy to catch fire twice.
